Job description

Controller

Salary : $80,000 - 100,000

Location : Indianapolis, IN | Full-Time | On-site / 2 days hybrid once trained

We're not your typical landscaping company - and we're not looking for a typical Controller. As we continue to expand and evolve, we need a sharp, forward-thinking financial leader who's ready to roll up their sleeves, bring clarity to the numbers, and help us scale smart.

This is a high-impact role where your voice matters, your ideas are welcome, and your growth is part of our plan.

What You'll Be Doing

Financial Strategy & Leadership

  • Own budgeting, forecasting, and planning across multiple business units
  • Drive cash flow optimization and investment planning
  • Support executive decisions with clean, clear financial insights

Payroll & Compensation Oversight

  • Run and refine payroll systems-accurate, timely, compliant
  • Partner with HR to manage benefits, bonuses, and deductions
  • File payroll taxes and stay ahead of compliance issues
  • Reporting & Compliance

  • Produce GAAP-aligned financials (P&L, Balance Sheets, etc.)
  • Lead audits, tax filings, and regulatory compliance
  • Build and enforce internal controls and financial SOPs
  • Team Building & Collaboration

  • Lead and grow a strong financial team
  • Partner with ops, sales, and procurement to drive profit-conscious decisions
  • Create a culture of accountability, clarity, and continuous improvement
  • Systems & Tech Management

  • Own and evolve our financial tech stack (QuickBooks, Sage, Dynamics, etc.)
  • Ensure data accuracy and ERP alignment across departments
  • What We're Looking For :

    5+ years of progressive accounting / finance experience, with at least 3 years in a Controller or Assistant Controller role.

    Strong knowledge of GAAP and financial operations.

    Experience in a fast-growing or evolving environment - bonus points for service, construction, events, or project-based industries.

    ERP or accounting system implementation experience is a big plus.

    A people-first mindset with a strong desire to lead, collaborate, and build.

    CPA preferred, but not required.

    Why You'll Love It Here :

    A culture that values creativity, ownership, and people over red tape.

    Tons of room for growth - this role has a seat at the leadership table.

    A vibrant team that celebrates wins, works hard, and throws a pretty amazing company party.

    An opportunity to shape the future of a company that's just getting started
